Although Bobby and Kenny McCaughey already had a child, they needed another one to be completely content. Kenny struggled to conceive for a long period due to health issues, so the pair opted to use IVF. Seven embryos were utilized because research has shown that only one takes root. But an unexpected thing happened: every embryo lived. All seven children were born in 1997. It truly was a miracle. At delivery, all of the children weighed around one and a half kilos. Tragically, two of the children were found to have cerebral palsy, but soon after undergoing many operations, they were able to stand and walk.
This story sparked a media frenzy, with newspapers starting to publish articles and air broadcasts about this family. But the family started to experience problems. Money was in dire need… Fortunately, the local population responded to this with understanding because of the prominence this entire tale received.
